Re: Forgot more than I know
Sometimes to find a leak you have to be inventive. Remove the belt and place a shower cap ( usually the GF or wife's) around the front of the compressor.

Early Corvettes were a hard vehicle to keep cool. If I were you, I would keep it original and keep it R12.

Re: Ac low pressure reading

Re: 2000 Excursion Rear AC Issues
Recover the charge and weigh the total correct charge back into the system. You may have a marginal TXV at the rear evap. Was it changed?

If the high side drops, you have air flow problems across condenser. The system may also be low on refrigerant indicating multip...
